dog mom pack

We believe life is better spent outdoors with our canine sidekick by our side. Our Airbnb filter is always set to “allows pets;” though, we’d rather find a campsite instead.

While we are their moms, our dogs aren’t our furbabies. They’re our companions, teammates, loyal confidants, furry sidekicks, our best friends, and our whole hearts.

We hike mountains, paddle the river, and camp in the forest — never without them.

We explore more; we love our dogs; we live life wild & free.

Hi y’all, I’m Kristen,
and this is Cedar

We’re the duo behind Kristen Murray Photography and extreme lovers of all things outdoors (and iced coffee.)

When we’re not out photographing clients and their pups, you can find us in the mountains, on the water, in the field, or out on a #vanlife adventure.

I created Outdoorsy Dog Mom to connect with like-minded women — equally as obsessed with the great outdoors and their heart dogs.

Adventures are open to all ODM pack members and mainly happen on the East Coast; Virginia, the Carolinas, and the DMV. If you’re interested in an adventure out west (or even international travel,) get in touch and let us know!

If we’re lucky, we get 14 years with our dogs.

The inspiration behind the Bucket List is my soul dog, Kona. Our journey ended in December 2022; she was 14.5 years old. While we had many adventures over the years, it wasn’t until she was slowing down that I realized just how significant those experiences were. And how I longed for just one more.

We left so many adventures unchecked; I didn’t make it a priority until it was too late.

I don’t want you to make the same mistake.
